About Me

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Gainesville, FL and graduated from the University of Central Florida in 2014. I have since lived in Asheville, NC, traveled through South Africa, Costa Rica, lived in Hawaii for 9 months, worked in the north woods of Wisconsin, lived and worked in Northern California, and traveled 5 months through Southeast Asia (mostly Indonesia).

I am quite laid back and open minded. Love discussion on a wide range of topics. I am a vegan who is passionate about food, health, and just feeling good! I am open and accepting of everyone's lifestyle.
I also love music, dancing, poetry, being outdoors, exercise, running.

Music, Movies, and Books

All kinds of music, grew up listening to hip hop. Enjoy dancing most to electronically based music. Love anything with a good message. Enjoy anything from folk to electronic to tribal rhythms.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While living in Hawaii I sustained myself on a 'fruitarian' diet for 8 months, eating about 99% of food from the land!

Teach, Learn, Share

Not sure exactly what this section entails. Can teach about the outdoors, healthy food choices, fruitarianism, my experiences with expanding consciousness. I am forever a student and an eager learner, if you have a passion, I would LOVE to learn it!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Willing to help out in any way possible! I enjoy preparing vegan meals, love nutrition and always enjoy offering guidance if one would like. Can share a meaningful conversation, and I love listening to people and truly hearing what they would like to share. I try to be as present as possible in the moment so when I am with a person I am usually quite engaged in their presence.

Countries I’ve Visited

Bahamas, Canada, Costa Rica, Lesotho, Mexico, South Africa, Swaziland, United States
